Can you believe there are only 2 months left in 2018? Where did the time go? The New Year motivates people to embark on all kinds of resolutions. According to Forbes Magazine, research has shown that by February, most people give up on the goals they set on New Year’s Day. People do not give up on their goals because New Year resolutions are doomed in nature, but simply because people do not have a focused approach on how they will execute their goals.
Without a plan of action, it is nearly impossible to achieve any goal for that matter. There are several factors that hinder achieving your goals. Sometimes, people want an accountability partner to hit the gym with, know that the goal is yours and not theirs so they may not be as driven to achieve it.
Sometimes, people give up prematurely when they meet challenges they did not foresee, or people have poor time management skills. There could also be financial burdens that stop you from saving as you had intended. Most commonly though, people do not believe they can even achieve the goals they have set and that prevents them from working at it!
Now is a good time to start setting goals for 2019, because New Year gets you in the hype but it does not necessarily predict the completion of those goals. We are far enough in the year, that you can assess the goals you set in January, check off those you were able to accomplish, and figure out why you were unable to accomplish some of the goals.
For goals to be accomplished, they must be SMART. Many universities and organizations have adopted the SMART concept. Here is a foolproof way to set any goal and have it completed!
